ring finger and CCCH-type domains 1, the group of Ring finger proteins|Zinc fingers CCCH-type

Gene summary

This gene encodes a protein containing RING-type and C3H1-type zinc finger motifs. The encoded protein recognizes and binds to a constitutive decay element (CDE) in the 3' UTR of mRNAs, leading to mRNA deadenylation and degradation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2014]

Manifestation: Allergy/Immunology/Infectious; Craniofacial; Musculoskeletal; Neurologic

Intervention: Allergy/Immunology/Infectious

Rationale: Antibiotics or antiviral agents can be beneficial to treat/prevent infections that can trigger an exaggerated inflammatory response. Chemo/immunotherapy can achieve clinical stability prior to allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), the only curative therapy.

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_172071.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Post-transcriptional repressor of mRNAs containing a conserved stem loop motif, called constitutive decay element (CDE), which is often located in the 3'-UTR, as in HMGXB3, ICOS, IER3, NFKBID, NFKBIZ, PPP1R10, TNF, TNFRSF4 and in many more mRNAs (PubMed:25026078). Cleaves translationally inactive mRNAs harboring a stem-loop (SL), often located in their 3'-UTRs, during the early phase of inflammation in a helicase UPF1-independent manner (By similarity). Binds to CDE and promotes mRNA deadenylation and degradation. This process does not involve miRNAs (By similarity). In follicular helper T (Tfh) cells, represses of ICOS and TNFRSF4 expression, thus preventing spontaneous Tfh cell differentiation, germinal center B-cell differentiation in the absence of immunization and autoimmunity (By similarity). In resting or LPS-stimulated macrophages, controls inflammation by suppressing TNF expression (By similarity). Also recognizes CDE in its own mRNA and in that of paralogous RC3H2, possibly leading to feedback loop regulation (By similarity). Recognizes and binds mRNAs containing an hexaloop stem-loop motif, called alternative decay element (ADE) (By similarity). Able to interact with double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) (PubMed:25504471, PubMed:25026078). miRNA-binding protein that regulates microRNA homeostasis. Enhances DICER-mediated processing of pre-MIR146a but reduces mature MIR146a levels through an increase of 3' end uridylation. Both inhibits ICOS mRNA expression and they may act together to exert the suppression (PubMed:25697406). Acts as a ubiquitin E3 ligase. Pairs with E2 enzymes UBE2A, UBE2B, UBE2D2, UBE2F, UBE2G1, UBE2G2 and UBE2L3 and produces polyubiquitin chains (PubMed:26489670). Show the strongest activity when paired with UBE2N:UBE2V1 or UBE2N:UBE2V2 E2 complexes and generate both short and long polyubiquitin chains (PubMed:26489670). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q4VGL6, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25026078, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25504471, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25697406, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26489670}.;
